Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of positive electrode slurry, and specifically discloses a positive electrode slurry for a lithium ion battery and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion battery is a common secondary battery with advantages such as high energy density and environmental friendliness. It is widely used in portable electronic products, automotive power systems, energy storage systems, etc. Among them, the positive electrode material is one of the key components of lithium-ion batteries and directly affects the performance of lithium-ion batteries.

[0003] The positive electrode materials of lithium-ion batteries generally include positive electrode main materials, conductive agents, binders, etc. Among them, the positive electrode main materials ensure the basic conductivity, the binder can increase the binding force of the positive electrode layer, and the conductive agent can optimize the charge transfer process at the battery interface. Among the positive electrode main materials, high nickel layered oxides have become one of the best choices due to their advantages such as low cost and high specific capacity. However, it still has the problem of poor stability of cyclic electrical performance. During the cycle, one is that the interface impedance increases and the electrical performance decreases; the other is that there are deep lithium removal defects, parasitic side reactions occur between the surface and the electrolyte, the positive electrode is corroded, and the particles crack, causing safety problems. Therefore, it is necessary to further improve the electrical cycle stability of the positive electrode main material. At the same time, in the prior art, the binder generally uses polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), but it is hard, and auxiliary agents need to be added during the slurry mixing process, and there are problems such as powder falling off, which leads to reduced electrical performance and safety.

[0004] In summary, it is of great significance to solve the above problems and prepare a positive electrode slurry for lithium-ion batteries. Summary of the invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a lithium ion battery positive electrode slurry and a preparation method thereof to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: A positive electrode slurry for a lithium ion battery, characterized in that the positive electrode slurry for the lithium ion battery comprises the following components: by weight, 32 to 40 parts of positive electrode material, 4 to 5 parts of conductive agent, 4 to 5 parts of binder, 0.002 to 0.0025 parts of photoinitiator, 25 to 35 parts of deionized water, and 10 to 12 parts of N-methylpyrrolidone.

[0007] Further preferably, the preparation method of the positive electrode material comprises the following steps: adding tetrabutyl titanate to ethanol, adding NCM811 particles, ultrasonically dispersing uniformly, adding a surface modifier aqueous solution, stirring at 40-45°C for 1-2 hours; stirring and steaming at 60-65°C until a paste, freeze-drying, and heat-baking at 70-80°C for 1-2 hours to obtain a crude precursor; heat-treating the crude precursor to obtain a positive electrode material.

[0008] In this scheme, a titanium dioxide precursor containing a surface modifier is coated on NCM811 particles, and then heat-treated and calcined, so that nano-titanium dioxide and carbon containing nitrogen and boron are coated on the surface of NCM811 particles as a protective layer, effectively protecting its structural stability and effectively increasing the cycle stability of electrical performance. Compared with the single titanium dioxide coating, the simultaneous introduction of carbon containing nitrogen and boron can improve the lithium ion diffusion efficiency, reduce the charge transfer resistance, and thus improve the cycle stability of electrical performance.

[0009] Further preferably, the raw materials of the crude precursor include the following components: 10 parts of NCM811 particles, 0.3-0.35 parts of tetrabutyl titanate, 160-200 parts of ethanol, 0.1-0.12 parts of surface modifier, and 8-12 parts of deionized water.

[0010] Further preferably, the heat treatment process is: heat treatment at 500-600°C for 4-5 hours in an Ar-3% O2 ​​atmosphere; replacing the Ar atmosphere; and then replacing the Ar-5% H2 atmosphere at 680-700°C for 2-3 hours to obtain the positive electrode material.

[0011] Further preferably, the preparation method of the surface modifier comprises the following steps: adding glucosamine and epoxypyridine to ethanol in sequence, stirring and reacting at 78-82°C for 6-8 hours, and purifying to obtain the surface modifier; wherein the mass ratio of glucosamine to epoxypyridine is 1:(2.25-2.3).

[0012] In this scheme, compared with the direct use of glucosamine, the epoxypyridine grafted modifier is used to make it contain nitrogen and boron, which can increase the defect sites of carbon, so that the positive electrode material has a higher discharge specific capacity and rate capacity. At the same time, boron and titanium can effectively increase the structural strength of the positive electrode material, thereby delaying the generation of internal cracks in the particle cycle process, thereby improving the cycle attenuation rate and improving the cycle stability of electrical performance.

[0013] Further preferably, the binder comprises modified gelatin, modified polyvinylidene fluoride, and polyethylene glycol diacrylate in a mass ratio of (2-2.5):1.5:(0.5-1); the modified polyvinylidene fluoride is PVDF-g-POEM.

[0014] In this scheme, compared with the common PVDF as a binder, the scheme uses modified gelatin with photosensitivity as the main body, and modified polyvinylidene fluoride with amphiphilicity as the secondary body, and polyethylene glycol diacrylate is added to form a ternary binder. The ternary binder can produce photocrosslinking, which can be pre-photocrosslinked in the subsequent positive electrode preparation process, thereby inhibiting the migration caused by high-temperature drying, increasing the adhesion between the electrode slurries, inhibiting the de-powdering, and reducing the resistance of the electrode. In this way, the electrical performance and cycle stability of the positive electrode are improved.

[0015] Further preferably, the preparation method of the modified gelatin comprises the following steps: (1) adding gelatin and epoxy pyridine to ethanol in sequence, stirring and reacting at 78-82°C for 6-8 hours, purifying, and obtaining pyridyl gelatin; (2) adding pyridyl gelatin to phosphate buffer solution and stirring evenly, adding methacrylic anhydride dropwise, stirring and reacting at 40-45°C for 2-3 hours, purifying, and obtaining modified gelatin; Among them, the mass ratio of gelatin and epoxy pyridine is 1: (0.35~0.4); in the modified gelatin, the mass ratio of pyridyl gelatin and methacrylic anhydride is 1: (0.6~0.65).

[0016] In this scheme, gelatin is grafted with epoxypyridine and methacrylic anhydride in sequence, so that its surface contains boron and pyridine groups, thereby improving the thermal stability of the positive electrode, increasing the mobility of lithium ions, and thus improving the electrical performance. The grafting of methacrylic anhydride makes it photo-crosslinkable, which can inhibit migration during high-temperature drying, inhibit unevenness in the electrode sheet, and reduce internal resistance.

[0017] Further preferably, the preparation method of epoxypyridine comprises the following steps: adding 2-ethoxypyridine-5-boric acid and 3-(4-glycidylbutoxy)-1,2-propylene glycol to tetrahydrofuran in sequence and stirring evenly; slowly adding magnesium sulfate, stirring and reacting at room temperature for 20 to 25 hours, purifying, and obtaining epoxypyridine; wherein the mass ratio of 2-ethoxypyridine-5-boric acid, 3-(4-glycidylbutoxy)-1,2-propylene glycol, and magnesium sulfate is 1:(1.73 to 1.75):1.5.

[0018] In this scheme, epoxypyridine is a substance obtained by chemically bonding the boric acid group in 2-ethoxypyridine-5-boric acid with the propylene glycol in 3-(4-glycidylbutoxy)-1,2-propylene glycol, so that it has a boron-containing group, a pyridine group and an epoxy group, and is used to modify the binder component and the positive electrode material, effectively increasing the electrical performance and cycle stability.

[0019] Further preferably, the conductive agent includes but is not limited to one or more of acetylene black, Ketjen black, nano-carbon fiber, conductive graphite, and carbon nanotubes; the photoinitiator includes but is not limited to 2-hydroxy-4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-2-methylpropiophenone.

[0020] Further preferably, a method for preparing a positive electrode slurry for a lithium ion battery comprises the following steps: uniformly mixing a positive electrode material, a conductive agent, a binder, and a photoinitiator at an orbital speed of 5 to 10 r / min; adding half of the deionized water, stirring for 5 to 10 minutes at an orbital speed of 30 to 40 r / min and a rotational speed of 300 to 350 r / min; adding N-methylpyrrolidone, stirring for 10 to 30 minutes at an orbital speed of 800 to 850 r / min and a rotational speed of 100 to 150 r / min; adding the remaining half of the deionized water, stirring for 1 to 2 hours at an orbital speed of 800 to 850 r / min and a rotational speed of 1300 to 1500 r / min, and vacuum degassing to obtain a positive electrode slurry for a lithium ion battery.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are: in the scheme, epoxy pyridine containing boron groups, pyridine groups and epoxy groups is used to prepare a surface modifier and modified gelatin; then it is used to modify NCM811 particles and added to an adhesive; thereby obtaining a lithium-ion battery positive electrode slurry with excellent electrical properties and cycle stability.
